    You all need to recycle your carburetor based chainsaws and get the 500i

    This is just the fact of life.

    Dolmar 7910 warranty story

    I just got the 7910 back. Brand new piston and cylinder. I have not had a chance to put it in wood. Everything was done for free. I am very happy!

    Dolmar 7910 warranty story

    I don't know if the timing was advanced. A saw builder on this forum sold me the saw and did the muffler model before it was shipped to me. It was brand new.

    Dolmar 7910 warranty story

    The service centre did say the written warranty is not very good. They gave my son and I a free rockstar and said they would look into it right away. The way this service center operated, I would purchase a Makita over a Stihl. Each Stihl store has to make profit and so this becomes difficult...

    Dolmar 7910 warranty story

    The saw was running great and all of the sudden it just shut off as if I turned it off. I wasn't under load when it happened, I was in between cuts. I wonder if the factory will set the timing advance correctly with the muffler mod.

    Dolmar 7910 warranty story

    Bought this saw 1.5 years ago with a modified exhaust. The pin on the flywheel sheared off which messed up the entire engine. The Makita service center said that chainsaw warranties are terrible in general. After 2 days they said that they will fix everything at no cost to me and I will have...

    Big 572XP VS MS462 + The New Husqvarna C85 with Stihl 2 in 1

    This article was written a week ago: https://www.forestry.com/editorial/equipments/review-test-new-ms-462-chainsaw/ I would love to find out how the C85 compares to Stihl RSLK Chisel. I do know you can't really use the 2 in 1 on the RSLK, but it might work on the C85. Any insight into this? I...

    Makita/Dolmar Big Bore vs. HD air filter kit

    I just purchased the 7910 with the HD filter installed. I also have the standard filter. My observation is that it is a nice setup. I don't really see how the air intake is more restrictive like someone mentioned. Outside of one comment, it appears most people who have the HD are happy with it.

    Breaking in a new Dolmar 7910

    I have read that you don't want to run a brand new saw wide open out of the wood, but at the same time you want to check the RPM's wide open with the Tach. Do people tune these saws with the chain in the wood and under load, or do they open them up without a load on the chain and check the...

    Dolmar 7910 Carb adjustment tool for H

    I am on the west coast, so Dolmar dealers are limited. I have a tachometer for monitoring this new saw I just received. Before I start using it I want to make sure this saw is tuned properly. The H screw requires a special tool. Can anyone help me identify the tool I need to get for this saw...

    Stihl 33RSLK 3/8" .050 84 Drivers Needs a home

    I couldn't put this in the Tradin Post. I think you need special authorization. I want to net $7 a loop. I will use flat rate shipping through the post office so this will be an dditional cost for the buyer. I have more loops than 15. All the loops have not been touched with a file or grinder.

    Stihl 33RSLK 3/8" .050 84 Drivers Needs a home

    15 loops - have never seen a file or grinder. Someone with a Silvey grinder would probably enjoy these. Let me know.
